The copy of context.xml in step 3 is not required for proper deployment - the values in the META-INF/context.xml will still be available to the application. > If we can include a preconfigured contxt.xml, and have it > used when the app is deployed, it would then not require > the user to setup the context JNDI, or a global one. Placing your context.xml in the META-INF directory of your webapp will allow you to do that - no other steps are required. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
